Topic : 03/21 Is This Normal?

I understand Linda's love for her dog,  it's just that, a dog.   My husband and I love our dogs and talk to them.   We, like Dr. Phil and Robin are empty nesters.  The dogs have replaced the kids.   We tease  our daughters that the dogs are her sisters.   And like Robin, I think our dogs are the smartest ones in the world.   However, I did not insist that my dogs through my daughter a bridal shower.

About the skydiver.  I completely understand your husbands fears.   My husband suffered a traumatic brain injury about 11 months ago, getting thrown from a horse.    Our whole family still rides horses, but we ride much more cautiously.   There's been a lot of fear to overcome there.    My husband has ridden some since the accident, but since he still has balance issues he only rides on good balance days and the rest of the family holds it's breath while he rides.   I don't think you should give up something you love to do, but your husband has a true fear of your either severely hurting yourself or losing you.    Take time to talk about it and I'm sure you'll understand where he's coming from.  

Picky food eater-I thought my husband was picky, but you make him  look good.     Maybe you should eat blindfolded.  

Umm.. Thats not normal in any sense of the word... Dr.Phil should get LINDA professional help just like any other person with serious mental issues.

Linda says her DOG does not lick it's butt. Umm LINDA here's a GROOMING FACT in regards to cats/dogs/etc... All cats and dogs LICK their butt! Its in their nature! See Linda a DOG doesn't get up in the morning and turn on the shower and hop in and put on the shampoo/conditioner/bodywash etc LIKE HUMANS do... So therefore the one and ONLY thing a dog can do to get clean is like itself, IE: LICK ITS BUTT! and then you let the dog lick and eat off your damn fork! THAT'S SO DAMN SICK AND GROSS!!

Not only THAT, but Im assuming at even some point in your life someone comes over to your place and IF they do have something to eat.. Don't you think that you could be putting those people at RISK of getting some sick disease, infection, bug, worm, etc, etc cause she used the same fork/plate that the dog licked after the dog FIRST licked its own butt after going to the bathroom and after eating some dead bird/rat that got ran over on the highway.....

DOGS are DOGS and CATS are CATS! That's it, thats ALL it is.. Thats why they are ONLY pets.. They are extremely stupid and uneducated compared to a person... OMG is this show for real? Dr. Phil might have to replace/fire his Creative Writing Department.... I mean I just got home from work and always look forward to Dr.Phil and some supper.. But after watching this... I gotta hold off now..SICK.

There's reasons why DOGS get shots for heart worms, fleas, etc, etc... Its not cause they are clean and sparkling!

Linda its ok to have a dog as a PET but that's IT. If your very lonely maybe look into internet dating or speed dating. Heck go to the BAR if it comes to that. Drink alot and its dark in there...

Oh yea lastly, Dr.Phil: My pet cat likes to get massaged behind the ears and on the head BUT only with my food, nothing else, not the hand, not the nose, and not anything else (hanger, etc). He also has an attitude, like when hes stressed out or mad, he will pull his hair out and spit it on the floor or rug. So when I come home for example I can see this chunks or balls of hair....Umm does that mean I can come on todays show too??? Please.

Also Linda.. Umm come on here time to wake up and come back down to earth and join the rest of us. Thanks.

Ceaser my amigo are you available to help this person called Linda on the Dr.Phil show airing December 14th/2007. Linda appears to believe her DOG is more a person/human then a person and attempts to treat the DOG as such.. Don't be alarmed Ceaser, to the rest of the 10 million people watching this show, its just a DOG... Its pees/poos outside on the trees or fenceposts, he licks his butt. He barks, has fleas and GOD knows what else.. She also tries to incorporate human behaviors into the DOGS live, like eating off the same fork (SICK), wearing clothes, necklaces, and Linda thinks the DOG is actually talking to her in some strange language she understands BUT on the video we seen, its just sounds like a DOG barking...

Please send help to Linda! STAT!!!

Thanks Ceaser!!

WOW, Colin needs help? How about the woman who had NOT 1, NOT 2 BUT 3 kids from another marriage.. Colin still marries her. Come on. Craazzy!

NO MORE KIDS WOMAN!

  I am 50 years old.  Female

   I got married July 21st of this year to a great guy.   At that time, I owned (now We own) 2 acres of property on a small lake in northern Wisconsin with a small log cabin .   On that lake Jim (Hubby) and I - prior to our marriage purchased a 48 foot dock (pier) with a 10 x 12 platform on the end.   This is where our marriage was to be performed.   It was Jims idea to have my German Sherpard who is 9 years old, 126 pounds be the ring bearier,  No one else knew our plan except the minister.   All the guests were on the shore line viewing our wedding when the minister asked for the rings at which time Jim and I turned to look at Jims brother in law who was holding Feral (my dog) when we turned John - brother in law released Feral who walked the length of the dock, just like it had been practiced, which it never had been. Feral had a pouch on his collar that had the rings.   When Feral reached my side, he stopped and Jim reached down and took the rings.   EVERYONE on the shoreline were going HAAAAA cause they all knew what Feral means to me and Jim.   I have never had any kids, now I have 2 step sons who were present.  One was the Best man the other according to Jim was the Best man too.   I had my two neices stand up for me.   Hurricane was a  German Shepard that was 13 years old.   I had him creamated, He attended the wedding alsol.  Ben , one of the best men, carried Hurricanes URN down the dock, and set it down next to the minister, After the ceremony, Ben picked up Hurricanes URN and carried it back,   Feral followed Jim and I off the dock. Walking slowly just like he knew what was going on but in fact, it was his first time.   DO dogs belong in weddings?   My (ours ) did!   and so did the deceased dogs Urn Hurricane.  I will forever keep this moment special.

Sincerely,

Mother and Lover of Animals!

Why is Colin being looked upon as the bad person.

Let me GUESS what the current situation is... Well the girlfriend had 3 KIDS with someone else. I assume got divorced, who knows maybe 3 kids drove the guy nuts, now she had ANOTHER kid with Colin. So this woman is currently NOT married and yet has 4 KIDS/CHILDREN. I'll guarntee Colin is the only person who works and has a JOB, while she's at home all day. It still looks like she has time to get her hair professionally highlighted though.. My oldest brother has only ONE - 8 YEAR old kid and when I babysit it gets ON my nerves after a couple days... So I can ONLY imagine what Colin is going through having to deal with 4 kids, 3 that are not his! and he works all day, comes home and has to deal with that. HAVING to put up with that is NEVER easy, especially with so many children...

Im sure Colin isn't a bad person, but Im sure he's stressed to the max. Working, having a short fuse. 4 KIDS to put up with, that don't listen... Even when I babysit 1 kid, they never listen and it drives me NUTS. I repeatly tell him to clean up, clean up, turn the Xbox off, 100 times and he never does, sometimes he turns off the TV......

Hey if SHE doesn't want to get married. If I was Colin, hey bud, there's alot of woman out there, so dont sell yourself short. There is also alot of woman out there who DONT have 3 CHILDEN from a past marriage that are instantly put into your life..... So hey don't sweat it. If she calls it off, it could be a blessing in disquise... Alot of men won't take in a woman with 3 KIDS from a previous marriage.... SO yea Colin. Dont worry what anyone else, even Dr.Phil. He didnt walk into a relatioship with 4 kids, and 3 that aren't even yours.... Dr.Phil didnt even have more then 2 kids in his life! So how does he know what its like??? He doesn't, he has never lived it, had to live it, etc....
